- The problem with XFmode wasn't really GCC-version related.
-
- PL43 will hopefully be ready by monday and will address this problem.
-
- Meanwhile, try the following patch to get a compilable libgcc2.c that
- should work with any GCC version:
-
- *** libgcc2.c- Sun Jan 16 05:45:50 1994
- --- libgcc2.c Thu Feb 10 17:24:15 1994
- ***************
- *** 60,66 ****
- #include <stddef.h>
- #endif
-
- ! #if 1
- /* Define for XFmode extended real floating point support. */
- #define LONG_DOUBLE_TYPE_SIZE 96
- #else
- --- 60,66 ----
- #include <stddef.h>
- #endif
-
- ! #if 0
- /* Define for XFmode extended real floating point support. */
- #define LONG_DOUBLE_TYPE_SIZE 96
- #else
-
- If you apply this remember to back it out before applying the PL43
- patches when they become available.
